The property was beautiful. A house that was built in 1805 it doesn't get any better then that. The Willow Room is the best....blue and positioned in the front of the house.

Friendly Innkeeper

The innkeeper was friendly and the property was nicely decorated. Breakfast was your standard continental. The flooring on the side entry is in need of replacement and I wished we had the mini fridge in our room because I forgot to go down the hall to retrieve my food from the mini fridge when I departed. Rooms were very today but sheets are scratchy.

The staff was great! They knew we were in town for a concert and they made it extra special by playing the artists music during breakfast and gave us each a small gift.

The staff was fine. The bed in the Willow Room was very soft and uncomfortable to the point that sleep was very difficult. We had a conference that started at 8;00 so we needed to eat breakfast promptly at 7:00 as advertised, only to not serving did not occur until 7:15, making us late to the conference session.... probably not return.

Good stay!

The stay was great! However we were only there one night! The only thing that could be better is having an option for something warm for breakfast. The Inn is in a goid locution! Nice historic area! Would like to stay longer next time.

Beautiful BnB

Pros: cleanest place ever, beautiful property, easy check in, thoughtful/tasteful room design, easy entry. Loved the access to ice and filtered water. Nice pillows. Cons: the best was VERY uncomfortable. Whenever one of us moved the other one rolled to the center of the mattress. The water pressure was extremely low in the shower. That might not bother everyone. Also, I was expecting a breakfast, rather than just a little continental. It’s okay, it’s just not what I’m used to from B and Bs.
